More quotes by Joyce Meyer
Pray that God will open the doors you can't open and close the doors that need to be closed.
Joyce Meyer
If we are addicted to people's approval, we will always experience pain when that approval is withdrawn--as it always is.
Joyce Meyer
If we didn't struggle through some things, we would never develop the strength and stamina we need to survive in this world.
Joyce Meyer
Where there is no opposition to evil, it multiplies.
Joyce Meyer
Genuine thanksgiving is a response to both who God is and what He has done, is doing, and will do.
Joyce Meyer
Spending time with God is the key to our strength and success in all areas of life. Be sure that you never try to work God into your schedule, but always work your schedule around Him.
Joyce Meyer
Our desire for approval can only truly be met by receiving God’s acceptance and approval of us.
Joyce Meyer
God is speaking to us. But are we listening to Him? When our conscience begins to nudge us for whatever reason, we might have this low-level misery or uneasiness about whatever it is we've done or we're about to do. At times like this, it's wise to prayerfully consider whether we're offending God with our actions.
Joyce Meyer
Faithfulness is not doing something right once but doing something right over and over and over and over.
Joyce Meyer
Jesus paid a tremendous price for us so we could have abundant life. He willingly took all of our sin on Himself and gave His life on the cross so we could be forgiven and have new life in Him.
Joyce Meyer
Ask God for help. Don't think that you can handle this yourself.
Joyce Meyer
Humility may well be one of the most difficult of the fruit of the Spirit to be cultivated in us - and to maintain. That's because without humility, it's not likely that you will put your complete trust in God.
Joyce Meyer
Humble people ask for help.
Joyce Meyer
Forgiveness is manifested mercy it is live in action - not love based on a feeling, but love based on a decision, an intentional choice to obey God.
Joyce Meyer
Anger is the fruit of rotten roots.
Joyce Meyer
Do what you don’t want to do to get what you want to get.
Joyce Meyer
Helplessness is a place of power if you're helpless before God. Ask God for help in everything you do.
Joyce Meyer
Giving is just one way of expressing that God has been good to you and will continue to do so through your being good to others.
Joyce Meyer
I believe many people feel like God is mad at them. One day I put a post on Facebook that said, 'God is not mad at you.' Within a few hours, we literally had thousands of positive responses from people saying things like, 'That is exactly what I needed to hear today.' Obviously, this is a message we need to hear.
Joyce Meyer
God wants us to be totally dependent on Him, and suffering seems to bring us to that point.
Joyce Meyer
